The contruction project of an Airport at Tana Toraja, Batu kunik requires cut and fill work because of the construction topography which is dominated by hills. In this project, there will be embankment contructions with a ten meter elevations. Before designing the embankment, soil investigation was undertaken to observe the soil condition on site. The soil investigation were taken on site and in laboratory. Several soil investigation tests conducted include Cone Penetration Test, Standard Penetration Test, and Atterberg Limit. Data obtained from the construction site and from the laboratory were evaluated to find the parameters for design. In this paper the embankment was designed by using a software named PLAXIS 2D 2D with safety factor of two.
